The Spouse Sleepover Date
by Corie
Remember your very first sleepover? I sure do! I wore Hello Kitty pajamas and had a bright pink sleeping bag. Sleepovers use to be the ultimate reward for me.
It made me start to think… “Why not have a sleepover with my spouse?” Oh, I couldn’t wait to get this date started! I knew this date would work because it did not require a babysitter and would be inexpensive!
I cut out a picture of my face and stuck it over Barbie’s. I then put my Barbie in my “homemade-in-less-than-two-minutes-sleeping-bag”. I then placed all the items on my husband’s pillow. I knew he wouldn’t miss seeing Barbie…whoops, I mean Corie. I was right! He not only saw Barbie/Corie, but I could hear him laughing all the way from the kitchen!
I LOVE scary stories. Do you remember the incredible books by Alvin Schwartz? These books are classic for sleepovers and the perfect way to end the night. So, I grabbed my husband, snuggled close and settled in for spooky stories!

This is SO cute! I'm planning this fun easy date soon!!!
What a fun, easy, yet creative idea! Thanks!
I will be trying this out come next weekend!
What a cute simple idea without having to get a sitter. We do sleepover in the living room with our kids every Friday that we are home (which really isn't all that often actually), but just me and my spouse, how fun!! Thanks Corie!!
I love this, it's so easy to put the baby down to have alone time…and I love the scrabble idea
Such a fun idea!
Love it!
So fun! My hubby and I do this all the time!! We love it!!
This is so much fun! If your really creative and need an activity to do, build a fort over the sleeping bags.:) ~Nike
Hi, I am getting married on the 23rd of this month. I am so glad my friend recommended this website because it is so informative and fun! Thank you so much for creating this site! God bless you all!
Such a fun idea! My husband and I had a sleepover just last night, not as fun as this one though!
I am going to have to plan this date sometime soon.
great idea–and totally doable for us since we won't haev to get a babysitter for the baby!
Too much fun! With a pull-out sofa, I won't even have to pull the mattress off the bed!
Fantastic idea! I know my hubby would love it if I would dig out some of his old scary story books for a night like this. Thanks for the notion!
So fun! My hubby and I do this often, only we use our air mattress. Sometimes we even make a fort out of blankets like when we were kids! I'm going to have to add the scary stories in next time! Thanks for sharing
Fun idea! We like to stay up after the kids are in bed, but this spices the date up
Did you get an overnight babysitter? or did your kids join you for breakfast?
I think this is my favorite post of them all! My husband would love it just for the cheese its…hahaha
CUTE IDEA!! I love it! Now I want to suggest a fun game to you and all of your fun friends! It is called "the game of things" I don't know if you have ever played it but it is my favorite game to play with a bunch of couples for a game night! Just a suggestion in case you run out of ideas . . . but who am I kidding you are the DATING DIVAS!!
I love this idea and the scrabble game is so cute!
So cute! Thanks so much for sharing! I featured ya'll on my blog today, hope you don't mind! http://www.lovingcouponsandmore.blogspot.com
Ah such a cute idea!! I'm totally doing this!
Thanks for posting this fantastic idea! We tried it a few weeks ago and it was SO MUCH FUN! I just blogged about it and figured I'd be ungrateful if I didn't tell you personally how wonderful you website has been for us. Thank you!
I did my first date this weekend for my husband! It was so much fun! I loved being able to love him in such a fun way. We had a lot of fun staying up late, talking, and playing games. Thanks for the great idea!
Ok, I love this idea! The next time the kids go to the grandparents for the weekend, I’m doing this date Idea
